An A/C compressor pressure relief valve is incorporated in the compressor manifold and tube assembly to:
- relieve unusually high refrigerant system discharge pressure buildups. For information regarding operating pressure(s) specifications, refer to Specifications.
- prevent damage to the A/C compressor and other system components.
- avoid total refrigerant loss by closing after the excessive pressure has been relieved.
